Venting Do you feel immortal?

[SpaceBoyEvangef]

I feel immortal, but not in the fantasy way. I feel as if I can't die no matter how much I destroy my body. I never sleep, I drink, probably have infected cuts, attempted several times, and cannot eat properly, yet, I am still here. I feel immortal, I don't want immortality, I want mortality. I want to die a mortal, not live as a pseudo-immortal.

I mean, currently there isn't any proof that we aren't immortal.

 

[MyChoiceAlone]

you can add chain smoking to that for me

 

[silent.desperation]

I feel more mortal now than at any point in my life

Don't underestimate the strength of a healthy (by genes healthy and strong) human body. It can resist so much things that can be harmful when done long term.

I don't exercise, I often don't clean myself, sometimes the food I prepare isn't the most hygienic, and on top of that the food I eat is shit. I don't brush my teeth as much as I should and I drunk a ton of soda to boot. I don't exercise either and am extremely underweight. Generally, I am a very unhealthy person.

I never get sick, my teeth are ok, and my health is generally in good order. Yet healthier people than me get sick all the time and have some condition that makes them so fragile.

Man, I wish my body wasn't so resiliant.

If those people you refer to were healthier they wouldn't get sick or have other health problems. I relate to what you do a lot but I'm also generally a healthy person only I think I probably eat healthier food.

I don't hink that "unhealthy living conditions" necessarily lead to a weak body. It's probably vice versa! All the hygiene and all that is suggested nowadays wasn't there for most of the time humans already existed and we made it up to here. It's just natural to get used to some "dirt" it will strengthen us and our immune system!

If you keep that up I promise you'll find out you aren't immortal sooner or later.

Not trying to be a downer - it happened to me. And I wish it didn't sadly

I feel like a timeless classic!

I don't feel immortal, but I feel death for me is far beyond the horizon and out of reach for me. So I have to suffer with slaving over a long life. If I knew when I would die then that would be comforting. Not knowing when I might die is the kind of similar to feeling immortal, which would be a terrible fate.
